Abstract

Rapid photoluminescence intensity degradation are observed in porous silicon layers formed at different preparation conditions. The decay rate, ranging from 0.5 to tens of seconds, is found to be a function of illumination intensity, sample temperature and emission wavelength. We attributed the degradation effect to photochemical reactions on the surface.
